This is great stuff, though I suspect this doesn't necessarily mean X number of Y years design, but may include stock from previous years or shipments of leftover cards from the prior year or something?
1948 really does not make any sense at all. This cannot be a straight up accounting of 1948 Bowman Baseball print run, and there was no 1947 set to carryover into the next year's distribution.
PSA Pop
1948 - 27,751
1949 - 64,873
1950 - 60,551 (less big rookies driving submissions, probably a little more common than 49)
1951 - 109,867

This part is confusing. I get the years are not quite directly equal to a set, as above, but... half as many cards for almost twice as many sales? They sold 1941 Play Ball's in 1942 at almost 4x the price of the original issue run? I'm an idiot or something must be off here.
